This work presents a survey of methods that visualize text streams. Existing methods are classified and compared from the aspect of visualization process. We introduce new aspects of method comparison: data type, text representation, and the temporal drawing approach. The subjectivity of visualization is described, and evaluation methodologies are explained. Related research areas are discussed and some future trends in the field anticipated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
